Bedlington Community: Viewing image Greetings from Bedlington - Bedlington Community

Early 1960's but somehow looks earlier - which it is not! The false sepia tones perhaps?

Note the concrete lamp posts which were later deemed to be a hazard.

Some classic Bedlington businesses in the background including the original Market Place Post Office, and (door behind the two black cars on the right) a real caf' with juke and espresso (US/UK style - AKA frothy coffee). You can almost hear the sound of 'The Everlys' (The Everly Brothers) drifting out!
